36: Chapter 36 The First Meeting of the Two Women

"Can this place... also be called the Immortal Realm..."

Yang Fan murmured. Perhaps it is an Immortal Realm if you have money, but for those struggling to survive here, just staying alive is good enough; they wouldn't dare to get sick.

"This is 1,400 years after the Tang Dynasty. You have traveled from a thousand years ago to the present!"

Yang Fan said something that Princess Xiangcheng could understand.

Princess Xiangcheng walked to the window, touched it, then looked at the high-rise buildings in the distance and swallowed hard.

At this moment, she somewhat understood why Yang Fan could speak to Father like that, and why Father and Mother had seemed like they were parting forever just moments ago.

It seems they both knew Yang Fan's identity.

"Husband, is this our home?"

"No, this is what you would call an inn back there."

"It's so beautiful here. Do we have such beautiful glazed glass at home?"

Princess Xiangcheng felt like she was in a dream; she had actually arrived 1,400 years into the future.

The sights before her and the tactile sensation in her hands told her this was real.

Yang Fan smiled, thinking to himself that the jewelry she was wearing, the gifts received during their wedding, and the dowry sent by Empress Zhangsun would be more than enough to buy this entire hotel.

"Not yet. I haven't even chosen a house yet. Let's go look for one in the next two days."

Yang Fan looked at her attire.

"Let me get you a change of clothes first; your current outfit isn't convenient for going out."

Yang Fan plugged his phone in to charge and called Jiang Lan.

"Hello, where are you?"

"I'm at the hospital, with Grandma. Boss, are you back?"

"Yeah. How is Grandma doing?"

"She's doing quite well. Even though Grandma has been here for a while, she wants to be discharged!"

"What does the doctor say?"

"The doctor just said it's fine either way, but since you aren't here, I didn't dare to process the discharge. Grandma is getting quite anxious staying here!"

Yang Fan was speechless after hearing this. Either she can be discharged or she can't; what is this "it's fine either way" business... Truly hypocritical.

"Then let's process it tomorrow. Come back first, and buy a few sets of girls' clothes and shoes."

"About 163 cm tall, well-proportioned figure, shoe size 37."

Jiang Lan listened, fell silent for a moment, and then responded.

"Alright, Boss."

She knew it was likely for the Boss's woman, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Princess Xiangcheng looked at the phone in Yang Fan's hand.

"Husband, what is that thing in your hand? Are you speaking to someone else?"

Princess Xiangcheng even looked around the room; there were only the two of them there.

"A phone. I'll buy you one too."

"It can allow you to talk across thousands of mountains and rivers."

Yang Fan also sent a message directly to Jiang Lan, telling her to buy another phone.

"Can I speak to my Father and Mother with it?"

Princess Xiangcheng's question left Yang Fan speechless.

"It's possible, but you'd have to go to your Father's Zhaoling Mausoleum and get an internet connection! You could make the call, but I don't know if anyone would answer."

"Ah... Ah? Father's mausoleum..."

Princess Xiangcheng realized; it had been so long, Father was no longer here.

"By the way, what is your name? I've only been addressing you by your title."

"Li Anlan. Husband can address me however he likes."

"Good. Then I will explain the forms of address here. You should follow the local customs and use our ways of addressing people."

Li Anlan nodded.

Yang Fan began to explain the forms of address to Princess Xiangcheng; after all, now that she was here, she certainly couldn't use the forms of address from the Tang Dynasty.

Jiang Lan returned quickly, carrying large and small bags, and holding several boxes in her arms.

Yang Fan stepped forward to take them from her.

Jiang Lan also saw the person who needed the clothes.

She was wearing magnificent ancient attire, had delicate features, and the ornaments on her head were incredibly gorgeous.

Where did the Boss find this cosplayer? She looks like she walked right out of a painting.

Yang Fan looked at the two dazed women and was speechless; both of them were staring at each other in a daze.

"Jiang Lan, go take An Lan to change clothes."

"Oh, alright, Boss."

Yang Fan patted Li Anlan on the shoulder, and she finally came back to her senses.

She hadn't expected that women could dress like this; it was so shocking.

Before long, Li Anlan came out after changing her clothes. Although he had seen it many times, he was still stunned by her wearing modern clothes.

On her upper body was a white shirt, on her lower body was an A-line skirt, she wore a pair of white sneakers, and added to that was the watch on her wrist.

If you ignored her hairstyle and the ornaments on her head, she was a quintessential urban goddess.

Mostly, her eyes were too bright, completely untouched by the hardships of the world.

"That looks great."

"You don't need to wear so many ornaments on your head; just wearing one hairpin is enough."

"You can change your hairstyle too."

Li Anlan had come to the modern era with no one to attend to her. She couldn't do her hair by herself every day, so she had to switch to a simple style.

"Alright, Husband."

She turned her head and said to Jiang Lan, "I've troubled you, Sister."

Hearing Li Anlan's way of addressing Yang Fan, Jiang Lan felt a bit disoriented.

Did this person really travel here from ancient times?

She had looked earlier; the material of the clothing clearly wasn't ordinary fabric, and the ornaments on her weren't plastic, but real gold and gemstones.

The craftsmanship was exquisite; it was definitely not cheap goods from a street stall.

And the watch on her wrist was clearly the one she had bought; it looked completely out of place with her other accessories, obviously a modern item.

"It's nothing. I'm here to serve the Boss, so serving the Boss's wife is only right."

Although Jiang Lan wasn't happy about it, she didn't show it; after all, what woman doesn't have a jealous heart?

But Yang Fan was very good to her, and she couldn't say anything about him being a playboy. Since she took his money and ate his food...

Very quickly, with Jiang Lan's help, Li Anlan's image changed significantly. She was a quintessential modern goddess; although she was only just 18, there was very little childishness on her face.

"Husband, is this okay?"

Li Anlan was very uncomfortable with this outfit, but seeing how Jiang Lan was dressed, she held it in.

"Yeah. Call me Brother. Didn't I tell you just now? Don't call me Husband when others are around."

Yang Fan was actually considering Jiang Lan; it wouldn't feel right for her if she heard that.

"I understand, Brother!"

Li Anlan nodded; she would change however Yang Fan told her to.

At this moment, Yang Fan's phone rang again.

He had seen it when he first turned the phone on; it was full of messages.

It was likely a call from the auction house.

"Hello."

"My dear ancestor, you finally answered the phone! I was worried to death. Your auction items need to be delivered."

Li Yang was on the verge of tears. He had been calling since morning until afternoon, and the phone had been off the whole time. If he had stood up so many big shots, he would be finished.

"Oh, I'll send them over in a while."

"Alright, Master, please have someone send them over quickly."

"Do you have anything worth auctioning there tomorrow? Tell me about it."

"There are a few top-tier sports cars, as well as watches, jewelry, antiques, and paintings. Are you interested? I'll reserve a seat for you."

"Alright, I know now. Reserve three seats for me."

Yang Fan was quite interested. He had never attended an auction before and could gain some experience tomorrow. He also had to go to the hospital to complete the paperwork tomorrow, get a check-up, and see what the modern lab results said now that the Famous physician said his organs were functioning normally.
